Active clinical trials for "Myocardial Ischemia"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a multifactorial primary care intervention based on chronic models can improve the level of control and reduce the number of hospital admissions in patients with ischemic heart disease.

The purpose of the trial is to directly compare the Cobalt Chromium platform everolimus-eluting stent, Xience Prime™, with the Platinum Chromium platform everolimus-eluting stent, Promus Element™, in relation to stent scaffolding shape, position with the heart blood vessel and extent of tissue coverage (at 6 months) using optical coherence tomography. Hypotheses: The alloy composition and strut design of a drug-eluting stent has a direct bearing on stent apposition measured using OCT. Stent design and alloy composition have a direct influence on radial support and scaffold shrinkage.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence of late incomplete stent apposition (ISA) and un-coverage by optical coherence tomography (OCT) following everolimus-eluting stent (EES) with bioabsorbable polymer (SYNERGY™, Boston Scientific,Nattick, MA, USA) versus zotarolimus-eluting stent (ZES) with permanent polymer(Resolute Onyx™, Medtronic, Santa Rosa, CA, USA) implantation in patients with AMI at 12 months.

The optimal antithrombotic therapy for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) with a CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥1 with concomitant acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or revascularisation by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting, is still unknown. For these patients current North American and European guidelines recommend a triple therapy strategy, including vitamin K antagonists (VKA), aspirin and clopidogrel. A major drawback of this triple therapy strategy is a significant increase in the risk of major bleeding. Furthermore, the ommitance of aspirin and the introduction of more potent P2Y12 inhibitors as well as the non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOAC), created numerous new antithrombotic treatment strategies for these patients with overlapping conditions. To date, evidence on the risks and benefits of these new antithrombotic treatment strategies is lacking. The WOEST 2 Registry aims to improve medical care for patients with AF and/or a heart valve prosthesis ánd undergoing coronary revascularisation through a better understanding of their demographics, antithrombotic management and related in-hospital and long-term outcomes. The WOEST 2 Registry will provide data to support benchmarking of antithrombotic treatment patterns and patient outcomes. Objective: To assess the different management patterns and related in-hospital and long-term safety and efficacy outcomes of combined use of chronic oral anticoagulation and a P2Y12 inhibitor in patients with atrial fibrillation and/or a heart valve prosthesis undergoing coronary revascularisation.

The purpose of this study is to develop imaging protocols when using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) to assess cardiac functions, morphology and tissue characterization. The National Heart Research Institute Singapore (NHRIS) houses two dedicated CMR scanners to support the numerous investigator initiated projects in patients with various cardiac pathologists. By optimizing novel CMR sequences used in these studies, scanning time can be shortened for patients with underlying cardiac diseases.

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory condition, which is associated by the involvement of several pathological events, and alteration in the serum levels of pro- and anti-inflammatory, and lipid markers. The investigators evaluated the contribution of serum biomarkers levels to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease, namely their association with risk factors, clinical presentation, extent and severity of atherosclerotic changes accompanying coronary artery disease.

The trial was designed in such a way as to show that the proposed program "Trust" increases the proportion of patients who adhere to therapy in the cohort of those with coronary heart disease for two years after successful revascularization by using thrombolytic or stenting of the coronary arteries against the background of myocardial infarction.

The purpose of the research project is to investigate the potential association of 6 genetic polymorphisms with the complexity and the severity of coronary artery disease (SYNTAX score). The aim of the study is to combine genetic, clinical and laboratory data in order to create a prognostic tool that will enable an individualized therapeutic patient approach.

The purpose of this study is to make a cohort event monitoring to see whether and how Dazhuhongjingtian injection in hospital results in adverse events or adverse drug reactions
